hey there!

village was established in 2010 as a way to document fashion/design/travel inspo from around the web. Also something to distract krystal from the fact that she gave up a career as a therapist and moved to switzerland and got caught in big pharma. but now she's opening a concept store in march as a kind of hobby. stop by the shop if you need to talk about anything!

The above pictures are from a trip we took with some friends to the Alsace Region of France where we camped and did some wine tasting!

Quick version of catch up or I'll write a book and we don't want that!

Have had visitors at my place for the last month

Just said goodbye to the last round a couple days ago

I have no idea where to begin with catching up anything

It was so fun but entirely exhausting, as if you hadn't heard me whine about it yet!

I was in Cinque Terre twice in the past month.

I got to walk around Milan for 2 hours - only went in to the American Apparel...ashamed.

I drove a manual car in to Milan and down to CT...I can do anything now.

I've eaten in the last month what I usually eat in one year, I'm sure...

My reader has over 2,000 things to read in it...

I didn't get that job =( Turns out I need to speak gooder German...;)

Finding a job in der Schweiz is almost impossible but can be done, so I'm hopeful. My degree doesn't transfer here so I've been applying to HR's and admin assistant positions all of who want fluent German, of which I don't have. I have to talk down my resume. But, we moved here knowing I might not be able to work...so I'm not upset or anything! But...I am learning german....

baah girl i didn't know you were going to Alsace!! My family is from there and my cousin owns the most delicious pastry shop there and I swear he is a real life version of willy wonka and I could've got you the hook up for sure. Boo.

Wow!!! That is guite a month...Glad you enjoyed all the visitors but i bet you are happy to get back to normality, right?....Take your time and about the job: you will find something soon...I bet!Love those images...you guys are such a cute couple:)Hugs and kisses and see you soon:)

Ps: I am hosting a sweet jewelry GIVEAWAY later on today :) Hope you will join in :)!!!

Krystal-ok well hopefully you can relax a bit now. O I love that you are talking about camping and wine at the same time : )So jealous you went to cinque terre 2x this past monthyou look adorable in that picture. And when I first saw your pictures I was like she didn't take those!!! then I thought of course it's Krystal....yes she did take those fabulous pictures.

What gorgeous, gorgeous pics!!! Especially the first one. Don't worry too much about the job - things happen for a reason and it just means you weren't meant to be in that place. Something will come along :)

Krystal! Love to read about your crazy hectic schedule. Too bad for the job but I am glad you are optimistic and you WILL find something :)Ok so I must as, where is the first picture from? It is so nice! And are they candies or cookies?You look great in that picture, are you reunited back with Mark?xoxo

So good to see you back love! Yahoooo!! Do you need 200 naps?? It sounds like you had the time of your life and I still envy your life abroad. Doesn't driving a stick in Milan count for anything on your resume??

Only a short book! lol.Awww sorry you didn't get the job. It must be really hard trying to get a job in a country where you don't really speak the language. I can't get a decent one here and I speak english, lol! Jealous you got to go to Milan and can't believe you only went to American Apparel!! Terrible!

Wow I'm tired just reading what you've up to....Nice to have friends around but can be exhausting. Glad your back and sorry you didn't get the postition but something will come up that is perfect for you. American Apparel? Really! That show strength, maybe you should be in finance. :)

I'm sorry to know about the job :(In my school I have the chance to learn german or keep learning english. i chose english because I think is easier. But german is a great language and i wish you luck learning it. Maybe in the future I'll learn it but first I have to re-star studying french.
